Corrosion of stainless steel 316Ti tank for the transport 12-15% of hypochlorite solution
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The corrosion of the transport tank materials made of stainless steel 316Ti is investigated in a solution containing 12-15% of the commercial sodium hypochlorite solution. Using the electrochemical techniques, weight loss ...
Valorization of walnut shell ash as a catalyst for biodiesel production
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The catalytic activity of the walnut shell ash was investigated in the biodiesel production by the sunflower oil methanolysis. The catalyst was characterized by the TG-DTA, XRD, Hg porosimetry, Ny physisorption, SEM, and ...
Growth control of molds isolated from smoked fermented sausages using basil and caraway essential oils, in vitro and in vivo
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Food contamination by molds is a serious issue in food industry still today. On the other hand, consumers today demand food that is minimally processed and without synthetic preservatives and additives. Therefore, the ...
Theoretical and experimental study of small potassium-bromide KnBr(0,1+) (n=2-6) and KnBrn-1(0,1+) (n=3-5) clusters
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2020)
In the present paper, the results of combined theoretical and experimental investigation of small non-stoichiometric bromine-doped potassium clusters are reported. Potassium-bromide clusters were obtained by the Knudsen ...
New Theoretical Insight into Fluorination and Fluorine-Fluorine Interactions as a Driving Force in Crystal Structures
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2020)
Fluorination of compounds causes an increase in the proton-donating ability and a decrease in the proton-accepting capacity of groups in their vicinity. The formation of F center dot center dot center dot F interactions ...
Bifunctional catalytic activity of Zn1-xFexO toward the OER/ORR: seeking an optimal stoichiometry
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2020)
Eco-friendly and rapid microwave processing of a precipitate was used to produce Fe-doped zinc oxide (Zn1-xFexO,x= 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.20; ZnO:Fe) nanoparticles, which were tested as catalysts toward the oxygen reduction ...
Amides as a model system of low molar mass algal organic matter. Influence on the adsorption of p-nitrophenol on activated carbon
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
In this study, the adsorption equilibrium and diffusivity parameters of p-nitrophenol were estimated for water containing different concentrations of secondary amides. Commercial powdered activated carbon was used as an ...
Evaluation of Nisin and LL-37 Antimicrobial Peptides as Tool to Preserve Articular Cartilage Healing in a Septic Environment
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2020)
Cartilage repair still represents a challenge for clinicians and only few effective therapies are nowadays available. In fact, surgery is limited by the tissue poor self-healing capacity while the autologous transplantation ...
Considerations for the design and conduct of human gut microbiota intervention studies relating to foods
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2020)
With the growing appreciation for the influence of the intestinal microbiota on human health, there is increasing motivation to design and refine interventions to promote favorable shifts in the microbiota and their ...
Selenate Adsorption from Water Using the Hydrous Iron Oxide-Impregnated Hybrid Polymer
(Metals, 2020)
Hybrid adsorbent, based on the cross-linked copolymer impregnated with hydrous iron oxide, was applied for the first time for Se(VI) adsorption from water. The influence of the initial solution pH, selenate concentration ...
